Update May 6th

*This Tuesday, is our last School Store of the school year. Please send no more than $2 for students to spend.

*This Friday, May 11th at 2pm is the first grade performance of Bugs & Blossoms.  At the end of the performance you will be able to take your performer home with you if you'd like.  I will have a sign-out sheet available in our classroom after the performance.
Our costume will be a red Robinson School t-shirt or plain solid-color red, yellow or blue t-shirt, blue jeans and sneakers.  Please have students bring their shirts into school by Wednesday to wear for our dress rehearsal.  We will leave them at school until Friday.

*This Friday, May 11th is the Robifulli Family Fest at Crisafulli.  I hope to be there for the beginning of the night and hope to see many families at this fun event!

*Last Friday, the 2nd Distance Learning Assignment was sent home.  One of the activities asks the students to log-on to RazKids, listen to a story, read a story and answer questions.  If you're having trouble logging in to RazKids please let me know.  If you don't have access to RazKids, I can provide you with a paper copy of the book and questions.  The 2nd Distance Learning Assignment is due back on or before Friday, May 18th.  I hope you're enjoying these assignments.  The first grade team enjoyed creating them.  If your child is taking more than 60 minutes to complete, please stop them at the 60 minute mark and note on the cover sheet where you stopped.

*In Math, we are working on data, creating bar graphs and asking/answering data questions.  We will also look at patterns on the number grid.  At the end of the week, students will be assessed on the skills they've learned in Unit 8 of the Everyday Math curriculum.

*In Science, we will begin to explore Sun, Moon & Stars.

*The final copies of our Pond Animal research books is coming along well.  The students should be very proud of their work!

*We are finishing up our Handwriting Without Tears journals. At this point, students should be writing all uppercase and lowercase letters, starting letters at the top (except lowercase e.)  We are reviewing writing numbers.  We'll finish up the year writing silly sentences using the handwriting skills we've learned in first grade. 

*Thank you for the donations for the Robifulli Family Fest!  We have a great basket of fun, outdoor activities put together.
